易混辨析
attend,join,join in,join sb.in(doing)sth.,take part in
(1)attend正式用语,指参加会议、仪式、婚礼或指上课、上学、听报告等,重在强调“参与”的动作,不强调参加者的作用。
(2)join指参加某组织或团体,并成为其中一员。其宾语往往是the army/party/team/club。
(3)join in指参加某项活动,in可为介词,也可为副词。通常可与take part in互换,但join in后不能接“会议”。
(4)join sb. in (doing)sth.表示与某人一起做某事。
(5)take part in指参加会议或群众性活动,并在其中发挥一定的作用。part前若有修饰语,需加不定冠词。

解析:选C。句意:尊敬的来宾朋友们,欢迎莅临我校。今天早上参加50周年庆典的是来自国内外的校友。本句为倒装句,正常的语序应该是:Our alumni from home and abroad are attending the ceremony of the 50th Anniversary this morning.attending作谓语动词的一部分。

4【教材原句】 I’m not a person who is hard to please.(P11)
我不是一个难以取悦的人。
【句法分析】 “sb.be hard/easy to please”意为“某人难以/易于取悦”,这是“主语+be+形容词+不定式”结构,在这个结构中,不定式和主语构成逻辑上的动宾关系,该不定式用主动形式表示被动意义。在该结构中,动词必须是及物的。
如果是不及物动词,须加上适当的介词。适合于此结构的常见形容词有cheap,dangerous,difficult,easy,hard,important,nice,pleasant,fit等。
①(朗文P643)I want a book that’s easy to read.我想要一本容易看懂的书。
②In many people’s opinion,that company,though relatively small,is pleasant to deal with.(2010年高考四川卷)

38.I like getting up very early in summer.The morning air is so good ________.
A.to be breathed
B.to breathe
C.breathing
D.being breathed
解析:选B。在“主语+be+形容词+不定式”句型中,如果主语是不定式结构的逻辑宾语,应用主动形式表示被动含义。本句中the morning air 恰恰是breathe的逻辑宾语,故答案选B。
39.(2010年福建高中毕业班质检)I am delighted ________ as chairman of the Students’ Union last winter.
A.to appoint
B.to be appointed
C.to have appointed
D.to have been appointed
解析:选D。考查非谓语动词。sb.be delighted 后常接不定式,同时语意表示“我很高兴去年冬天被任命为学生会主席”,appoint这个动作发生在“过去,且已经完成”,用不定式的完成时态,而且I和appoint之间为动宾关系,所以用to have been appointed,答案选D项。
作文指导
如何写好简单句
优化句式是指在写作过程中要注意句式的变化,避免平铺直叙,罗列事实。真正优秀的文章应做到长短句搭配合理,主、被动准确运用,适当穿插倒装、强调、比较等特殊句式,并能够恰当使用连接成分以确保各句之间紧密衔接,从而使文章错落有致,如高山流水般顺畅。
简单句指的是只包括一个主语和一个谓语的句子。英语中简单句的基本结构主要有以下5种:
1.主语+不及物动词(S+V)
The door bell rang./She sat down.
2.主语+系动词+表语(S+V+P)
The flowers are(smell)sweet./Mother isn’t in at the moment.
3.主语+及物动词+宾语(S+V+O)
Who can answer this question?/Columbus discovered America.
4.主语+动词+间接宾语+直接宾语(S+V+O+O)
My uncle gave me a camera./I’ll give you something to eat.
5.主语+及物动词+宾语+补语(S+V+O+C)
She painted the walls light green./I smelt something burning.
以上5种基本结构是英语句子的“主干”结构,所有的句子,不管多么复杂,都是主干结构的扩展和延伸。
反过来说,不管你组建什么样的句子,你必须从“主干”开始构建,也就是必须严格遵循语法规则,这是英语作为一种“形合语言”的最基本要求。
【佳句选粹】
①I now declare my decision.
②I,who am a senior of the English department,now declare my decision that I will run for the chairman of the Students’ Union.
【分析】 第①句的基本结构是“主语+谓语+宾语”。为了让读者了解更多的信息,第②句在第①句“主干”结构的基础上增加了一些“枝叶”成分。主语“I”后增加了一个who引导的非限制性定语从句,宾语“my decision”后增加了一个同位语从句,这样,该句就在原有的基础上扩充了“我是谁?”和“我的决定是什么?”两方面的信息。
